When I first read the challenge this morning, I decided it was not one for me as I rarely watch commercials. With most things on the DVR, I fast forward and skip them. I no longer get magazine subscriptions as the internet provides most info I need. So.......as I sat down to watch a bit of TV, I saw this commercial flash by for ALL Detergent.....I rewound and watched it and it was all about WHITE clothes.....so......that is the story behind this card's upload to the challenge.
Thanks for looking.

LOL, as someone who hasn't had television for over 25 years (and mostly grew up without one) and doesn't listen to commercial radio, I don't have high ad-exposure either, it's mostly posters and hoardings in town. I'm glad that you found some wonderful inspiration for this beauty, Joanne. What a fabulous frame that is!
And I'm with Polly, I don't think that my whites get that white either.

Super cute image and love the B&W. So funny that you had to find a commercial to rewind and watch again for your card. Yep many do not watch commercials any more...I try not to watch them unless the super bowl is on. Giggles!

Wow! That's fabulous - you were inspired by an All commercial and created a beautiful white on white card. I love the flower and frame - just gorgeous!

I had the same problem as you. I never really see ads much. But I googled popular advertisements and found one. I love how you interpreted white clothes for this beautiful card!
